SSL Certificate Installation & Security Setup
SSL certificate installation puts the padlock and HTTPS on your website, encrypting traffic between your visitors and your server, and it's a baseline requirement now for trust, browser warnings, and search visibility. We install and configure certificates correctly, along with the broader security settings that go with them.
Beyond just installing the certificate, we handle the details that get missed — forcing HTTPS redirects, fixing mixed-content warnings, configuring security headers, and setting up renewal so the certificate doesn't quietly expire later. Where relevant, we also review basic server and application hardening so HTTPS isn't the only line of defense.
Certificate Installation & Renewal
SSL/TLS certificates installed and configured, with auto-renewal set up so your site doesn't drop back to HTTP unexpectedly.
HTTPS Redirects & Mixed-Content Fixes
All traffic forced to HTTPS and mixed-content issues resolved so browsers don't show security warnings.
Security Headers Configuration
HSTS and other relevant security headers configured to strengthen how browsers handle your site's connection.
Basic Server Hardening Review
A review of common security gaps — outdated software, open ports, weak file permissions — flagged and addressed where in scope.
How it Works
Security Review
We check your current certificate status, hosting setup, and any mixed-content or configuration issues.
01
02
Installation & Configuration
We install or renew the SSL certificate, force HTTPS site-wide, and configure the relevant security headers.
Verification & Monitoring
We verify the site loads cleanly over HTTPS with no warnings and set up renewal so it stays that way.

Frequently Asked Questions
For most standard websites a free certificate (such as Let's Encrypt) provides the same encryption as a paid one. Paid certificates mainly add extended validation features some businesses prefer for trust signaling, but they're not a functional requirement for most sites.
It shouldn't if done correctly, but sites with hardcoded HTTP links or embedded resources can show mixed-content warnings after the switch. We check for and fix these as part of the setup.
A standard installation is usually quick, but sites with a lot of hardcoded HTTP references or complex hosting setups can take longer to fully clean up. We'll give you a clearer estimate after reviewing your site.
It depends on your hosting environment and how much cleanup the site needs beyond the certificate itself. Contact us for a quote.
Access to your hosting control panel or server, and DNS access if the certificate requires domain validation records. We'll confirm exactly what's needed once we see your hosting setup.
We verify the site is fully clean over HTTPS and set up auto-renewal so it stays that way. If new security issues come up later, ongoing monitoring or hardening work can be arranged separately.
